A JOYFUL NOISE BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

12 X 10 PASTEL SKETCH ON HEAVYWEIGHT CANSON PAPER

I did several quick pastel sketches a few weeks ago concentrating on the gesture of the figure.

I limited my time to 15 minutes each.  I have about six more of these to show in the following week or two.

This is a good way to warm up if you haven't painted regularly in a while.  They were fun anyway.
